Plan for your Lasting Legacy

What is Legacy giving?

Legacy giving is the transfer of assets to a charitable organization, often upon someone’s passing. By entrusting gifts to RCCF, you ensure that your contributions will be used wisely to support the causes you love.

What is the Legacy Circle?

When donors leave charitable contributions to RCCF in their wills, trusts, or estate plans, RCCF recognizes them as members of the Legacy Circle .

What will your legacy be?

Here are a few benefits of planning now, regardless of age or financial situation:

• You will be a philanthropist. There is no minimum for legacy giving, and there are many ways to give. Small gifts can make a big difference.

• You will be a role model.

Legacy giving shows your children and your grandchildren the importance of philanthropy and reinforces charitable giving as an important family value.

• You can support your causes, your family, and your community. You can simultaneously provide for your heirs and your charitable organizations.

• RCCF will navigate the planning process with you. You are never too young to plan. We’ll help you think through what inspires you and assist you and your advisors through the process.

Limitless possibilities

If you have several organizations or causes you’d like to support, RCCF can help you do it. Endowed gifts are a way to make sure that you can support your favorite organizations forever.

Tribute gifts in honor or memory of someone special

Tributes and Memorials allow donors to celebrate the lives of people who are important to them. Gifts can be made in memory of a loved one who passed away or in honor of someone who’s still with us; either way, these gifts create a lasting legacy by serving a charitable purpose into perpetuity.
